Both dutasteride (Avodart) and finasteride (Propecia and Proscar) are FDA approved prescription only drugs. Avodart and Proscar treat men with an enlarged prostate gland, and Propecia treats men with hair loss (androgenetic alopecia).

And dutasteride and finasteride also work the same way too (by suppressing the enzyme 5-alpha reductase from
converting testosterone into the much stronger dihydrostestosterone).

However, there is a big difference between these two drugs - dutasteride blocks both 5-alpha reductase types 1 and 2, whereas finasteride only blocks type 2. This makes dutasteride more effective and so only a smaller amount is
needed to treat the prostate – just 0.5 mg of dutasteride (as an
Avodart capsule) compared with 5 mg of finasteride (as a Proscar pill).

As for hair loss, finasteride is prescribed at a much smaller dose (a 1 mg Propecia pill). But, dutasteride does not
have FDA approval to treat hair loss. So, whilst the optimum dose of
dutasteride to treat hair loss will obviously be less than 0.5 mg, the
exact dose is unknown.

This now creates all sorts of problems for any man who finds finasteride ineffective and then wants to try dutasteride instead:

1. He will first need an off-label (i.e., for use not as shown on the label) prescription by a doctor who’s willing to help provide him with a drug outside its intended use!

2.
If a doctor did help him (some do by the way) he would then need to
somehow split each Avodart capsule (which contains dutasteride as a
messy gel) into smaller portions so he can get a regular daily dose.

3.
But, since the optimum dose is unknown, he might then take a higher
dose than he needs (which, of course, can increase the risk of Avodart
side effects developing).

4. Dutasteride stays inside the body much longer than finasteride
does. This means that it can easily accumulate if the dose is too high.
So, if Avodart side effects do develop, they’re likely to last
longer too.

It’s quite clear then, that using drugs to treat hair loss can create many potential problems!

Unlike Avodart, the techniques I used to successfully stop my own hair loss are completely natural.

And they're also safely
being used by both men and women (unlike dutasteride and
finasteride which state "for men only" but can still cause adverse side
effects in those men who try it).

I had been taking dutasteride for 6 or 7 months at the time and my hair loss got worse.

It improved after 2 months with your methods. I'm quite possibly going to stop the Avodart all together. Thanks so much!"

Visit the testimonials page and you'll see plenty more reviews like this from both men and women. Most testimonials are from men as you might expect since it's mostly
men who suffer this type of hair loss and so form the majority of customers.

Generic Avodart Side Effects

Some men who fail to get their doctor to prescribe Avodart for their
hair loss (which will probably be almost all doctors) may be tempted to
get hold of the drug from the Internet instead (i.e., where no
prescription is needed and it’s a lot cheaper).

So, would the side effects be any different if you tried a generic version of Avodart?

In theory, the side effects from generic Avodart should be exactly the same
as they are for the brand name version. But, there is a possibility that some
other excipient ingredient (i.e., something that the brand name version does not
contain) might cause some other adverse reaction.

Clearly, if any
man who chose to use dutasteride for his hair loss were to overdose,
he should report this to his doctor (i.e., even if he
didn’t notice any side effects).

Finally, hair loss can make many men feel truly desperate for a solution. And willing to try almost anything to keep their hair or promote hair regrowth to get it back. But hopefully this review has shown that choosing Propecia, Proscar or Avodart might not be such a good idea!
